Horny Soldiers Stationed In Afghanistan Using Craigslist For Gay Hookups On Base

Soldiers have been getting it on with each other since the days of Alexander the Great, but with the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, one would assume U.S. service members can service each other as much as they want, right?

Well, turns out, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, soldiers are forbidden from having sex with anyone other than their spouse while deployed to a combat zone. But that’s not stopping some soldiers from seeking their jollies through that time-honored method of anonymous hooking-up: Craigslist.

A hard-hitting exposé in the Daily Mail reveals that soldiers are posting “explicit photos” of their genitals and even “sex acts” on the Iraq Craigslist page — “a holdover from a time when hundreds of thousands of Americans were stationed throughout Iraq” — under the casual encounters section. [Ed. note: use responsibly, children]

“Dozens” of posts go up daily featuring soldiers seeking “workout buddies”, “NSA fun” or some good ole-fashioned “sucking and balls-deep fucking.” One poster, noting the site’s appearance on the Daily Mail, hoped that the story “doesn’t fuck it up or invite creeps.” Too late! — we’ve already invaded.

While rule breakers won’t be kicked out of the service, they still face strict penalties. One Marine lance corporal tells the Daily Mail of being caught and arrested trying to hookup with a male undercover Naval Criminal Investigation Service officer. He was demoted down to private first class, docked $1600 in pay, received 45 extra days of duty and 45 days of restriction.

What is this, Baton Rouge? Officers entrapping sexed-up service members? Isn’t there a war or something going on? And considering the danger these brave and incredibly horny men face each day, what’s wrong with getting an innocent beej from a fellow soldier? Hell, it beats getting a prostitute and subsequently, chlamydia.

“When detached from home, without the ability to openly exercise relationships in a combat environment and with a fatalistic attitude, military members would be inclined to embrace risk-taking,” explained retired Army psychiatrist, Col. Dr. Elspeth Cameron Ritchie. “These young men have high testosterone and, with the inability to quietly have a relationship, it is not surprising that they are willing to put themselves into that situation.”

Mmm, all those mens and all that testosterone and all that camo just asking and telling one another, waiting for a release — it’s enough to make a gurl enlist in the armed forces. Who do we have to see about getting a thoroughly invasive medical exam? We’re talking balls deep.

Oh great, this is really swell. They end DADT, which was hard fought for, and this is what we get? These idiots are playing right into the hands of our detractors. Can you just hear the comments? "See, toldja' so, goddamn fags can't keep it in their pants." What a clusterfuck. This is a blackeye for gay rights. I am ashamed of these troops.

It seems as if they're involved in the same things hetero soldiers have been doing for eons.

Even when not in a combat zone, there are still USMJ rules against adultery. Also rules against dating a junior member of your own staff.

For info on getting away with those two things, you can look at the active duty Navy experience of adulterer Sen. John McCain.

R1 This has been going for both gay & straights forever. Craigslist may be a new touch. But if you on Armytimes.com you'll see that what they post about the investigation is:

"Most of the posts are men looking for men, followed by men looking for women. There are occasionally couples looking for women. However, women post far less often on the site. In one strange twist, a stateside woman advertised that she wanted her husband to experiment with bisexuality while deployed to Afghanistan. She offered to set up the meet and asked that anyone interested send her details afterward."

consensual NSA hookups between young men.

What a surprise.

Why don't these guys just do it the way the military supports - sexually assault someone. I think the number is over 13,000 male victims of sexual assault in 2012.

Male victims, like female victims, are afraid to report due to professional repercussions. As we all know chances of the person doing the assault being convicted are slim.

In other words looks like the military is willing to investigate and run sting operations on consensual sex - but prefers to ignore assault.

This is the Daily Mail, who once posted the headline "ABORTION HOPES FOR GAY GENE".

Naturally, DLers missed the important part:

"[U]nder the Uniform Code of Military Justice, soldiers are forbidden from having sex with anyone other than their spouse while deployed to a combat zone."

This only applies to MARRIED, CLOSETED soldiers. It's forbidden on the basis of military officers being expected to abide by a certain code of conduct, one that includes devotion to country AND wife ... if applicable, that is. Nothing's stopping gay, uncloseted soldiers from hooking up. As for the closet cases: since *when* do you bitches advocate allowing these cowardly fucks to remain cowering in the closet? You scream and wail about the likes of Henry Cavill staying closeted, but somehow it's fine for Army and Marine grunts to do so? Hypocritical cunts...

I think there's a difference between an actor staying closeted and a serviceman staying closeted.

You cannot have sex while deployed unless it is your spouse, which obviously means your spouse also must be deployed. My then boyfriend, now husband, used to complain all the time that he had to jack it while having to hear some E4 pound his fat E4 spouse through the particle board walls. Sex is firmly off limits to unmarrieds, hetero or homo.
